Vacation Diary 2 ~ Movies revenge

Fyi, I only watched six movies on the cinema this year: ATM (a Thai movie), The Avengers, Taken 2, Suddenly It's Magic (a Filipino movie with a Thai actor), Hobbit, and Life of Pi. During my vacation, I spent most of my time watching movies with my brother (or alone). Nevertheless, most of these movies were watched only from the middle to the end, or from beginning to the middle, hahaha. I finally watched The Lord of The Rings (the first and the third one, but I didn't watch the first one from the beginning). In this vacation, I watched two movies about the use of time: Click and In Time. Good reminder for the new year! :) I also watched some romantic movies; Something Borrowed, What's Your Number, and one movie, title of which I can't remember on two friends that adopted baby of their friends that passed away in an accident.

Lessons from these movies:
Hmm.. Well, Nic is correct. It's kinda tiring to watch American movies; sleep here, sleep there >.<
Nevertheless, a movie like What's Your Number in which the girl had sex with 20 guys in her life somehow still teaches us to guard our purity, to respect ourselves and respect our partner. I love Ally's speech in her younger sister's wedding: "When you are in love you can be yourself." (somewhere along that line hehehe) And the guy that at the end Ally was truly in love with was the one who respects her the most, the one who 'slows down' and respects her decision to not sleep with her!! (even this guy was someone who just slept around easily)

LOTR is beautiful!! I like what Gandalf said to Frodo, "....the important thing is what you do with the time given." (when Frodo kept regretting and wishing that the ring didn't come to him). I also adore Sam's courage and loyalty! Beautiful! My brother said I look like a fool when I watched the third LOTR. (Sorry! But my mouth opens according to the dynamics of the movie!!)

Last four days of vacation! Fully recharged! Hehehehe :D
Please pray for my family's pilgrimage tomorrow. We are going to a shrine of Our Lady at Cisantana :)
